The Microsoft Windows operating system does not provide its users with an easy way to change file attributes and dates. Sure there is the right-click > Properties dialog that makes it possible to change the Read-Only and Hidden flags of files but there is no obvious way to change other flags like index or archive and no option to change the file date.
Attribute Changer is a lightweight software for Windows that can manage file attributes and dates. It integrates itself nicely in the right-click context menu and can change the settings for multiple files and folders including subfolders.
One application for Attribute Changer would be to change the read-only flag of files that have been copied of a CD or DVD to a computer system. Attribute Changer offers extensive filtering options to apply the changes only to files with specific attributes including creation time, size or existing attributes.
Exceptions can be defined as well in the program interface. Attribute Changer is a small unobtrusive application that might come in handy in a few situations.

LOL. Nice. Lets say you are in a situation that you have to mail your report to your teacher before 6 o’clock, but you haven’t done it yet.
You finish your report later and edit the date/time with this tool. Then you mail it with an excuse but with the info that you haven’t worked on it after 6 o’clock.
